Soft Stratification for Magic Set Based Query Evaluation in Deductive Databases
Summary: Bottom-up Magic Set-based evaluation for stratified deductive databases using Kerisit's weak consequence operator to compute a two-valued well-founded model of magic rules. Shows weak stratification can yield unsound/incomplete answers and introduces soft stratification to restore soundness and completeness. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
